Serial Killers, 90s Grit & Existential Dread: Seven | The VHS Club – Ep 118
What’s in the box?? No seriously. We need to talk about it.
In this episode of The VHS Club, we’re rewinding to Seven (1995), David Fincher’s bleak, rain-soaked thriller that permanently altered the vibe of 90s cinema.
Starring Brad Pitt and Morgan Freeman, this movie is all grit, dread, and slow-building horror that sticks with you long after the tape stops spinning.Join us as we spiral together, unpacking:
- The Seven Deadly Sins as a deeply unsettling narrative device
- Brad Pitt’s raw 90s intensity vs. Morgan Freeman’s weary gravitas
- David Fincher’s signature visual style and why this movie feels so oppressive
That ending. Yes. That ending. We are not okay.
Is Seven a flawless thriller or a beautifully crafted nightmare you only revisit when you’re emotionally prepared? Either way, it’s a VHS-era classic that demands discussion.
So dim the lights, hug your couch pillow, and press play. This one gets dark. (But don't worry. We'll still bring the laughs).
